Pedestrian Accident Compensation Claims North West

In the UK, a pedestrian is injured by a motor vehicle every few minutes. More worryingly, each day, a pedestrian is killed or seriously injured every two hours.

Pedestrian accidents are some of the most difficult and challenging cases that The Claims Partnership have to deal with. Many of these accidents are completely avoidable and involve a disproportionate number of children and elderly victims.

At The Claims Partnership, we do not just investigate the physical injuries that our clients suffer. We know that the psychological aspect of the accident is sometimes as bad as the physical pain. Pedestrian accident victims frequently develop Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder or other psychological problems. As a result, we routinely have our clients assessed by a Consultant Psychiatrist to investigate this aspect of their injuries, as well as arranging for therapy and counselling, where it is needed.

Common Causes of Pedestrian Accidents

Driver distraction. A National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Survey estimated that driver distraction was involved in 78% of all pedestrian accidents.

Poor visibility – Up to 70% of pedestrian accidents occur at night time.

Drunk driving – Alcohol or drug involvement was reported in 48% of traffic accidents that resulted in a pedestrian being killed in 2009.

A failure to allow a pedestrian the right of way. Pedestrians have the right of way whilst crossing streets, in both marked and unmarked crossing areas.
